Default 89 FLHTP turn signal issues

During my morning 30 mile commute today, 38 degrees 6:30am, had both turn signal indicators come on and then both went back out. Then about 5 minutes later came back on and I tried both signals and emergency flashers and nothing worked. Purposely hit bumps trying to shake what I could and still lit. After about 10 more minutes went out and signals functioned as normal. Started this afternoon for commute home and all normal the whole trip home. 60 degrees and sunny. Any thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated.

The thought of snow makes my hair hurt and my teeth itch. South for me sooner than later too. I think my bike would love me forever.
